“Up to 1,700 people were seeking refuge at the Drama Theater. We stayed in a loge on the first floor. We were terrified”

Mykhailo’s family stayed at the Drama Theater from March 4 to 14. The police had to break into food stores to feed hundreds of people. Food was brought to a warehouse. In the beginning, some 300 people lived at the theater. The maximum number reached almost 1,700 people. Some people slept under the dome, in the big hall. That place was the most dangerous one. It was the place where a lot of people died when an air bomb was dropped on  March 16.
